just out of curiousity have you checked the vacuum at start up. had a very similar problem (not exactly same) that turned out to be a baffle in the muffler blocking the exhaust. when blocked , hard to start and no acceleration. when open, start and run good hit bump shut down hard or no start no acceleration. found problem with vacuum guage. probably not your issue but worth the 30 seconds to check.

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
